2. Meet people who share your interests, who live near you, do the same things, and care about the same topics.
3. Make better and more well-informed decisions about how you live your life and what is most important to you.
4. Swap stories, experiences, and ideas (not advice) around our shared mission - personal growth and erasing lonely.
5. Find a little inspiration, thought-provoking conversations, and expert perspective on how to enhance your life and relationships each and every day.

​Features of MATES Cafe Community APP

Content is Organized by Topic

With the MATES Cafe Community APP, articles, questions, polls and events are organized into categories. Topics include: Life Support, Being a MATE, Great Relationships, Empowered Thinking, Feeling Good, Physical Vitality, Your Life Journey and Sexual Well-being where you can get inspiration, insights and clarity to help you find new direction.

Focused Groups

​At MATES Cafe Community, we have private groups focused on restoring fulfillment in important areas of your life. From “Need a MATE” to the “Life Mastery Membership” each group has its own privacy settings, topics, articles, polls, questions and events as well as an open chat room for all group members to join in discussion.

Fun Ways to Meet Other Members

​​With our customized “member categories” people can quickly find the most relevant members to meet. Members can also see which members are located nearby, and who follow the same topics they do. They can then explore member profiles to decide who to connect with. There is also an open chat room for all MATES Cafe Community members to join in.

Beautiful and Useful Profiles

​​In our MATES Cafe Community APP, members can prompt relevant connections and direct messaging by creating a profile that includes a bio, links, headshot, and background image. Plus all of their activity is organized in one place, including upcoming events they’re attending, topics they follow, and their publicly-visible groups and courses. Members can also follow each other’s posts and activity.

Private Direct Messaging

​​​The MATES Cafe Community combines all courses and groups with messaging and chat. So however members meet in the Community Network, they can quickly strike up a one-to-one conversation, with context and member profiles easily accessible.

Events and RSVPs

​​From weekly video conference calls, live chats, to in-person member meetups, MATES Cafe Community supports events for the entire community network or a specific group. Members can RSVP, add comments, and export the event to their calendar. Community Hosts can message members based on their RSVP status, and any member who RSVPs “yes” or “maybe” receives an event reminder.

Online Courses

​​MATES Cafe offers amazing online courses such as Mind Renaissance including the Emotional Reset Technique (ERT) to help you stop sabotaging your happiness and create the life you want. With our community, content, and subscriptions all live in one place, confidentiality and secure protection for your information is ensured. Each course features an activity feed for participants to share their questions, ideas and insights. All course materials are organized by sections and lessons; and photos, links, files, and videos are embedded throughout our courses to make them engaging as well as fascinating.

Share Your Updates in Beautiful Rich Media

​​The MATES Cafe Community offers a rich content editor to create beautiful updates. Include photos and file attachments, embed videos and audio, and more. To tag or @mention another member in a post or comment, simply type in the "@" symbol and then start typing in someone's name. Once you've tagged a member in a published post or comment, they'll get notified in the app, on the web and if they have email notifications set up.

Interactive Polls and Questions

​​Two of the most effective ways to start conversations in MATES Cafe Community are through questions and polls. Questions and polls tagged with a specific topic will show up within that topic and appear in the feed of members following that topic.
